SPYWAREBASTER ESSENTIAL FOR PREVENTING SPYWARE/MALWARE.

Javacool recently released an upgraded version of the popular anti-spyware and anti-malware software. SpywareBlaster 4.2 features improved Windows 7 support, faster updating worldwide, support for the Internet Explorer 8 and K-Meleon browsers, interface improvements and numerous other enhancements.

PC World Magazine recognized SpywareBlaster as one of its "eight great free security tools" that can help computer users "beat back the bad guys."

The Philadelphia Bulletin's columnist Ray Wilson praised SpywareBlaster for standing "like a sentinel at the front door of your software to stop any invasion before it starts. This is protection that works like another firewall without the fear of a conflict. It works in its own fashion, restricting any potentially dangerous infections as you go about your desires."

Wilson told his readers that anti-spyware and anti-malware SpywareBlaster "has been in my arsenal since its inception back in 2002."

Technologizer.com columnist Steve Bass told his readers that "it's essential you get (SpywareBlaster)."

Wrote Bass: "It's free, updated regularly, and automatically blocks over 10,000 malware sites and tracking cookies while you're browsing. Unlike an antivirus tool, it doesn't actively run while you're surfing. Instead, it adds URLs to your browser's Restricted Zone, effectively stopping you from getting to the sites."

Jimmy Rogers, a writer for Makeuseof.com, called SpywareBlaster "phenomenal," noting that a great attribute of the software is its "lightweight nature. The program takes very little time to install and updating it is also very quick ... SpywareBlaster doesn't leave any running processes open, since it merely patches areas in hazard, so it won't even cut into your RAM!"

UK-based blogger Colin Richards, writing on his site Free PC Security, lauded SpywareBlaster as "very simple to use as well as being powerful and very effective using a multi-layered approach to provide flexible protection."

SpywareBlaster coexists with other security software to provide a "layered defense" against spyware, malware and other threats. It prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware and other dangerous programs, blocks spying and tracking via cookies, and restricts the actions of potentially threatening Web sites.

Unlike other subscription or free anti-spyware and anti-malware software, SpywareBlaster focuses on prevention. It protects against stealth downloading of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers and other potentially unwanted software. And unlike other programs, the performance-friendly SpywareBlaster does not remain running in the background, avoiding drags on a PC's operation.
